I don’t mind Mormons, such as Chaffetz and Bay Buchanan pushing a candidate, such as Romney, but I still say Americans in general should look into and consider that Mormon pundits and politicians’ may be directed by the religious leaders such as the current Mormon president and prophet to act in the interest of Mormonism and Mormon business interests first and the American people second. Congressman Chaffetz and Bay Buchanan, Mormon converts, are following Gingrich campaign to distract news people from Newt's presentation. It seems that Romney followers are motivated by the orders of Mormon leaders. If you have children...

Remember how Jeremiah Wright's influence on Obama was not thoroughly vetted in 2007 race? Let's not make the same mistake now. The GOP & Media Must investigate and expose, before the DEMs and mainstream do, Romney, who is a Mormon clergyman, and his Lifetime Promises to the Mormon Church and Mormon Objectives. We Must Find Out any Romney-Mormon Conflict of Interest Now! Romney is a Mormon priest and highest level member of the Mormon Church. Many Freepers have said that the Mormon Church is as much a business as it is a religion. I am appalled at the lack scrutiny...

Does the thought of Mitt Romney, a devout Mormon and Mormon leader, becoming President scare you? After reading this testimonial of an ex-Mormon ((http://www.infidels.org/library/modern/richard_packham/why.html)), I am scared of Mitt Romney becoming President. Remember when Barack Obama was seeking the nomination in 2008, his 20 year attendance at Jerimiah Wright's church where radical preaching took place was glossed over by the American public and the press. I say we do not make the same mistake with Mitt Romney and his leadership role in the Mormon Church. In the GOP nominating process, let's explore Mitt's Mormon beliefs. Am I totally off base?...

After enduring tons of lies and half-truths from Romney's spin maching, Newt Gingrich finally cleared the air this week to establish himself as the heir of Ronald Reagan's Conservative Principles and Actions. The coup de grace was Nancy Reagan's direct quote saying that Ronald Reagan passed the Torch of Conservatism to Newt Gingrich. Also, Rush Limbaugh clearly stated that Newt was a Central Figure in the Reagan Revolution. Sarah Palin said the Newt was being crucified unfairly by the press and others. She means that the American people are being saturated with lies and half truths about Newt by the...

Are you tired of the slanderous attacks against Newt Gingrich from Glenn Beck, Matt Drudge, Fox, and the establishment GOP? We must give Newt a BIG grassroots FLORIDA victory! Newt encourages grassroots citizen participation. The other candidates just want your vote and then they don't want to hear from you again. Please go to newt.org and volunteer to make calls or volunteer on the ground to get out the vote in Florida. Let's "bury" Romney and the elite in Florida!!!

On his income taxes released today, we see that Romney gave $4 Million tithe donations to Mormon Church. Do Mormons help poor Americans with these donations? Do the Mormons have something similar to Catholic Charities, which helps thousands of Americans (both Catholic and non-Catholics) with basic life needs, medical help, childcare help, education help, etc. The main question is do Mormons use the $4 Million from Romney to ONLY advance the Mormon religion without helping the American poor. Does Romney even know or care what the Mormon Church does with his $4 Million donation? I think that is a fair...

Correct me if I am wrong, but unlike Newt Gingrich, Romney and Santorum rarely speak about specific legislation that they would introduce or push if they are elected president. Gingrich often speaks about elements in his Contract with America listed on newt.org. What I usually hear from Romney is boasting about being a business man and how that may translate into a good president. He rarely pushes specific economic or cultural policy items. What I usually hear from Santorum is his boasting about his family values and he being the go-to guy in congress. He rarely pushes any specific legislative...

On this Sunday's Morning's Fox and Friends, Ann Coulter continues her Kamakazi mission for Mitt Romney. She continues burning her bridges to the possibility of eventually supporting Newt Gingrich for President. When a smart person does not acknowledge Gingrich's shining victory in South Carolina and criticizes the people of South Carolina by saying they were becoming like Democrats again, Ann is acting like a doctrinaire Liberal who does not acknowledge the success of their political opponents. Ann is risking her credibility and seems prepared to go down with Mitt Romney.

Remember Ronald Reagan the Great Communicator. In my opinion, he was a great leader, because he was a great communicator. I the GOP primaries, Newt Gingrich is by far the best speaker, orator, and communicator. Since he espouses the conservative values, methods and action plans that we mostly agree with and since he does give the best, most interesting and easy to listen to speeches, he has the potential to be the best candidate against Obama and to be the best president to help we Americans to clean up the mess made by the Obama administration. Also, Gingrich is not-only...

Should American voters ask Romney and the other candidates what their philosophy of life is and what in their beliefs shapes their worldview? Also, should American voters ask the candidates about the degradation of the American culture especially among young people? I know we all have past sins, ie. Newt. However, Newt Gingrich has openly talked about his conversion to Catholicism and his reconciliation with God for his past sins. Rick Santorum openly talks about his devout Catholicism. Rick Perry is very open about his strong Christian beliefs. However, we do not hear much from Mitt Romney about his Mormon...

This is a serious comment. Every time Newt Gingrich speaks he mentions specifically what he would do on Day 1 of his presidency. On his web page (Newt.Org), he outlines his Contract with America where he pledges to accomplish specific items. He is specific. Romney, Perry, Santorum, and Paul only give cheerleading speeches where they brag about what they have done in the private sector, or in Texas, or in the Senate or about personal freedoms. All of Gingrich's opponents speak in general terms. In most cases, their speeches are not translatable into legislation and action. Gingrich speeches are usually...

Let's Rate the Conservative GOP Candidates with the Goal of Convincing Voters to unite behind one conservative GOP candidate to win the nomination against Romney. Categories Intelligence Articulate Ability to craft & push legislation Electability Presidential Stature Let's order Gingrich, Perry, Santorum from highest to lowest under each of the above 5 categories. Here is my answer. I welcome yours. Intelligence - Gingrich, Santorum, Perry Articulate - Gingrich, Santorum, Perry Legislation - Gingrich, Perry, Santorum Electability - Gingrich, Perry, Santorum Presidential Stature - Gingrich, Perry, Santorum FINAL SCORE - Gingrich, Perry, Santorum Comments - Gingrich is a political warrior who...

South Carolina needs to vote for 1 conservative to defend Pro-Life & Traditional Marriage. Gingrich is best anti-Romney, since he has the financial backing to participate in all of the future primaries, such as Florida, Georgia, North Carolina. Santorum is a weak candidate with marginal speaking skills. Perry has not caught on. Consider consolidating your voting around the best, most intelligent, most skillful, most articulate Conservative-Newt Gingrich. As Newt said yesterday, moderates such as Romney do not do well in debates, because they do not have CORE-CONSERVATIVE beliefs, so when it comes to a debate, they stutter and are not...

Today, Rush Limbaugh said a Politico writer saw Romney on CBS today. Romney equated Bain Capital's mode of operation to be the same as what Obama did to retool General Motors. Rush said to pull the car over to curb, before I tell you the above. He could believe that Romney would say this and step into this dodo. Maybe Newt is correct about Romney's inability to debate Obama? Did anyone else hear Rush talk about this today or see the segment with Romney on CBS?

Tea Party members, we must push Sarah Palin & other Tea Party promoters to quickly endorse a single conservative candidate. The best, most eloquent, strongest, conservative candidate is Newt Gingrich. He would define the clear line between the left and conservative principles including the economy, jobs and our culture. Santorum does not look as presidential. He bores people when he speaks. He is not as equipped to push required reforms and legislation. Sarah Palin & others, please help us to join conservative forces behind Newt Gingrich. Please join with Mike Reagan, Thomas Sowell, Art Laffer, Newsmax & others to promote...

Attention all Conservatives, Freepers, Tea Partiers, Gingrich Supporters, Now Is the Time to Act! Please contact South Carolina's Senator Jim DeMint's office in Washington, DC at (202)224-6121 or in Charleston at (843)727-4525. Leave a message requesting that Senator DeMint endorse Newt Gingrich now for the SC primary. Mention that Conservatives, Free Republic members and Tea Partiers want to push the Conservative agenda & Newt is the Best Warrior that we have now! Call Now - Weekends or Weekdays, Days or nights. The window of opportunity for the Conservative Cause is Now!

This is an appeal to all long-time conservatives. Let's start lining up behind Newt Gingrich, as Thomas Sowell, Art Laffer, JC Watts, Jim Robinson (Free Republic honcho) and others have. The hazzard of holding back an endorsement is that the media, pudits and PAC TV commercials will continue to shape negative opinion against Newt and we may lose our best conservative warrior. The result of the media, pundit and PAC TV onslaught may cause the nominee to be Romney or Santorum. Romney is a moderate and Santorum does not have the experience to Push the conservative agenda in the general...

Last night on Glenn Beck's GBTV.com television show, Glenn and historian David Barton discussed Judicial Tyranny where many recent Federal judges have been legislating from the bench creating a judicial tyranny. This discussion is remarkable close to the firestorm and headlines caused by Newt Gingrich's position that federal judges that cross the line when they outlaw school prayer and the mention of God at school graduations, should be brought before Congress to EXPLAIN their tyrannical judicial decisions. Remember, the constitution gives Congress the power to set up the court system. Congress in essence oversees the federal court system. In this...

Can someone tell me why Glenn Beck has such digust for Newt Gingrich, without mentionning his conservative credentials on Israel and Balanced budgets? Glenn said on GBTV last night that he leaves political expertise to Rush Limbaugh. However, he does not mention that Rush is usually positive on Newt's conservative background. The vitrol toward Newt Gingrich from Glenn and his GBTV panelists seems to be unreasonable and coordinated. Any explanations would be appreciated.

Gingrich-Obama Debate is the political equivalent of the Ali-Frazier Fight of the Century. Forget Santorum, Perry, Bachmann, & Romney. If you are conservative, votes for Santorum, Perry or Bachmann are wasted votes, since they cannot communicate the conservative message as well as Newt Gingrich. Remember, millions of Americans would pay money to see the political equivalent of the "Ali-Frazier fight" in a debate between Newt Gingrich and Barack Obama. In contrast, a debate between Santorum and Obama or between Romney and Obama would attract far less attention. Please, GOP voters, keep our best conservative candidate in the ring by voting...
